Any such statement so modified or superseded shall not be deemed to constitute a part hereof except as so modified or superseded. ITEM 4. DESCRIPTION OF SECURITIES Not applicable. ITEM 5. INTERESTS OF NAMED EXPERTS AND COUNSEL The validity of the Common Stock to be issued in connection with the Plans will be passed upon by Denis A. Demblowski, Esq., Secretary and Senior Counsel of Alcoa. Mr. Demblowski is a participant in the stock option plan and various other employee benefit plans offered to employees of Alcoa. ITEM 6. INDEMNIFICATION OF DIRECTORS AND OFFICERS Article V of the By-laws of the Company provides that the Company shall indemnify, under specified circumstances, persons who were or are directors, officers or employees of the Company or who served or serve other business entities at the request of the Company. Under these By-law provisions, a person who is wholly successful in defending a claim will be indemnified for any reasonable expenses. To the extent a person is not successful in defending a claim, reasonable expenses of the defense and any liability incurred are to be indemnified under these provisions only where independent legal counsel or other disinterested person selected by the Board of Directors determines that such person acted in good faith and in a manner such person reasonably believed to be in, or not opposed to, the best interests of the Company, and in addition with respect to any criminal action or proceeding, had no reasonable cause to believe the conduct of such person was unlawful. Any expense incurred with respect to any claim may be advanced by the Company if the recipient agrees to repay such amount if it is ultimately determined that such recipient is not to be indemnified pursuant to Article V. The foregoing By-law provisions generally parallel Sections 1741 and 1745 of the Pennsylvania Business Corporation Law ("BCL"). Section 1746 and the By-laws both also provide that the indemnification provided for therein shall not be deemed exclusive of any other rights to which those seeking indemnification may otherwise be entitled. Section 1746 of the BCL and the By-laws provide for increased indemnification protections for directors, officers and others. Indemnification may be provided by Pennsylvania corporations in any case except where the act or failure to act giving rise to the claim for indemnification is determined by a court to have constituted willful misconduct or recklessness. Section 1713 of the BCL also sets forth a framework whereby Pennsylvania corporations, with the approval of the shareholders, may limit the personal liability of directors for monetary damages except where the act or omission giving rise to a claim constitutes self-dealing, willful misconduct or recklessness. The section does not apply to a director's responsibility or liability under a criminal or tax statute and may not apply to liability under Federal statutes, such as the Federal securities laws. The Company's Articles and By-laws were amended by the shareholders to implement the increased protections made available to directors under the BCL as described in the preceding paragraph. Article VIII of the By-laws provides that, except as prohibited by law, every director of the Company shall be entitled as of right to be indemnified by the Company for expenses and any and all liability paid or incurred by such person by reason of such person being or having been a director of the Company. Expenses incurred with respect to any claim may be advanced by the Company, subject to certain exceptions. The shareholders have also approved a form of indemnity agreement. The Company has entered into such an indemnity agreement with each of its current directors. The Company has purchased a three year liability insurance policy with an aggregate limit of $100 million, with certain specified deductible amounts, for liability of directors and officers and reimbursement to the Company for indemnification provided to directors and officers. The policy has an expiration date of October 1, 2000 and provides liability insurance and reimbursement coverage for the Company, and its directors and officers, which is permitted by the laws of Pennsylvania referred to above.

EXHIBITS Exhibit Number Description (4) Alcoa's Articles of Incorporation (incorporated by reference to Exhibit 3(a) to Alcoa's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998).

(24) Powers of Attorney of certain officers and directors of the Company. ITEM 9. UNDERTAKINGS The Registrant hereby undertakes: (1) To file, during any period in which offers or sales are being made, a post-effective amendment to this Registration Statement: (i) To include any prospectus required by Section 10(a)(3) of the Securities Act of 1933; (ii) To reflect in the prospectus any facts or events arising after the effective date of the Registration Statement (or the most recent post- effective amendment thereof) which, individually or in the aggregate, represent a fundamental change in the information set forth in the Registration Statement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any increase or decrease in volume of securities offered (if the total dollar value of securities offered would not exceed that which was registered) and any deviation from the low or high end of the estimated maximum offering range may be reflected in the form of prospectus filed with the Commission pursuant to Rule 424(b) if, in the aggregate, the changes in volume and price represent no more than a 20% change in the maximum aggregate offering price set forth in the "Calculation of Registration Fee" table in the effective registration statement; (iii) To include any material information with respect to the plan of distribution not previously disclosed in the Registration Statement or any material change to such information in the Registration Statement; Provided, however, that paragraphs (a)(1)(i) and (a)(1)(ii) of this section do not apply if the information required to be included in a post- effective amendment by those paragraphs is contained in periodic reports filed with or furnished to the Commission by the Registrant pursuant to Section 13 or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act that are incorporated by reference in this Registration Statement. (2) That, for the purpose of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each such post-effective amendment shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof; (3) To remove from registration by means of a post-effective amendment any of the securities being registered which remain unsold at the termination of the offering; and (4) That, for purposes of determining any liability under the Securities Act of 1933, each filing of the Registrant's annual report pursuant to Section 13(a) or Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act (and, where applicable, each filing of an employee benefit plan's annual report pursuant to section 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934) that is incorporated by reference in the Registration Statement shall be deemed to be a new Registration Statement relating to the securities offered therein, and the offering of such securities at that time shall be deemed to be the initial bona fide offering thereof. Insofar as indemnification for liabilities arising under the Securities Act of 1933 may be permitted to directors, officers and controlling persons of the Company pursuant to the foregoing provisions described in Item 6 above, the Company has been informed that in the opinion of the Securities and Exchange Commission such indemnification is against public policy as expressed in the Act and is, therefore, unenforceable. In the event that a claim for indemnification against such liabilities (other than the payment by the Company of expenses incurred or paid by a director, officer or controlling person of the Company in the successful defense of any action, suit or proceeding) is asserted by such director, officer or controlling person in connection with the securities being registered, the Company will, unless in the opinion of its counsel the matter has been settled by controlling precedent, submit to a court of appropriate jurisdiction the question whether such indemnification by it is against public policy as expressed in the Act and will be governed by the final adjudication of such issue. With respect to the Reynolds Metals Company Savings and Investment Plan for Salaried Employees, a determination letter dated February 20, 1996, was obtained from the Internal Revenue Service (the "IRS") that the Plan, as amended and restated through June 30, 1994, is qualified under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Registrant hereby undertakes that it will submit the Plan as subsequently amended to the IRS in a timely manner and will make all changes required by the IRS in order to qualify the Plan, as so amended and restated. With respect to the Reynolds Metals Company Savings Plan for Hourly Employees, a determination letter dated February 20, 1996, was obtained from the IRS that the Plan, as amended and restated effective September 1, 1993, is qualified under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Registrant hereby undertakes that it will submit the Plan as subsequently amended to the IRS in a timely manner and will make all changes required by the IRS in order to qualify the Plan, as so amended and restated. With respect to the Employees Savings Plan, a determination letter dated February 20, 1996, was obtained from the IRS that the Plan, as amended and restated effective July 1, 1994, is qualified under Section 401 of the Internal Revenue Code. The Registrant hereby undertakes that it will submit the Plan as subsequently amended to the IRS in a timely manner and will make all changes required by the IRS in order to qualify the Plan, as so amended and restated.
